Here are figures for the class of first-year students who entered in August 2009.  Data was compiled on September 1, 2009, and will fluctuate slightly as the year progresses.

 

As the process of determining financial aid eligibility involves a variety of factors, we recommend that you use this table only as a starting point.  Please do not make assumptions about your eligibility for financial aid; instead complete the application process or submit the Forester FastApp (before December 31) and allow our office to provide you with "real numbers" related to your eligibility. 

 

If you have questions about these figures, contact Mark Anderson, Associate Director (847-735-5010).
